No because DNS is delegated. So the root servers hold only pointers to the TLD servers. The TLD servers hold pointers to servers for a paticular zone. So no single nameserver anywhere knows everything. Caching Nameservers / ISP nameservers listen to an answer a wide variety of queries, and therefore have a lot of info cached, but there is no obvious way to get that information.

Going to side with this lainon on this issue.

Typically I would give someone the benefit of the doubt, as their site may be WIP, and they may be unfamiliar with the tools used, so I will add them anyway. It takes little effort on my part, and it is difficult to police. I'm personally choosing to add just about anyone.

However, if you're running an imageboard, you're clearly familiar enough with the tools used that it should take a few minutes to do at most. If you're too lazy for this, do as https://sftn.github.io/links.html, and just link to someone else's copy.

I've dropped 28chan.org and kolyma.jp from my web ring unless they add it themselves, though I'll keep a copy of their banners server-side. Likewise, I'll keep heyuri.net and wired-7.org's banners around, but I'll add them when they add the ring to their own sites.

I advise anyone else to follow the same principle if in doubt.

>>38698
Refer to above, find somewhere to link the ring. I note you have a "Links" page.

I feel the spirit of the original web ring thread was to promote the creation of new, small sites. Adding Pointless Imageboard(tm) #473 to that doesn't quite fit.

That being said, I'd probably still add them if they also added the web ring. I think a lot of imageboard owners post their link and never check the thread again, so I'm at no obligation to give them free traffic.

You inspired me to finally post my soykafty website that is under construction (and probably will be for a good while).
I didn't want to at first because I currently don't really have the time and energy to work on the website and because I don't have a banner, but I decided to just make a quick one and maybe update it later.

I really like the webring idea so I want to contribute to it.

I'll add the other lainon's site banners when I have the time and energy, but for now I'll go the way of linking other people's ring's.

I had the same thing happen. It started when I joined freedns.afraid.org, as it allowed me to make a cron job to do DDNS. It's been months and I've yet to have more visitors than I have had bots, but the numbers are now closing in on one another.

You could try out something like fail2ban, or work with what's available with iptables already. I wrote a script to manage it, but that's not really necessary, just flexing on my part - it's on my Git server.

>If you have any tips for a workflow
Hm, it depends on what software you are using. I generally consider the ideal to be automation - to automate all that can be automated in the most efficient manner you can. Reserve creativity for the brain, and leave the manual work for the machine.

I see static site generators being used, I liked the look of www.tohya.net a lot. You could write something from scratch, or use something existing.

Scripting languages often used in web development are also an option - I automated almost everything with PHP (I had no prior experience and it was the first web scripting language I came across, but it works for me), so that writing an article was as simple as dropping a plain HTML file into a directory and then later I automated writing the HTML itself to an extent too.

I would at least say that including the header and footer should be automated, either via a scripting language, or static site generator - on the big assumption you haven't already. You may get more ideas as you go along, and your needs become more complex.

I like Vim because I like bulk actions and macros. It may help when doing things like long lists. Consider an editor with macros.

That's probably about all I can suggest, unless you're looking for something more specific.

>I generally consider the ideal to be automation

>>

 No.38865

>>38857
On the assumption you're on a Linux distro or a *BSD, learning some Bash/sh should suffice. I have a script that parses my article content and various other variables, and inserts them to the top of the feed with sed. It's not portable and I only expect it to work as an example, but see here: https://git.concealed.world/shell-scripts/file/mkrss.html

Basically any web scripting language will have something akin to an 'include', for things like headers and footers, thus avoiding the circumstance where the header needs changed - and you need to change it for every file. Alternatively, static site generators, but I have little experience with them.

>it depends on what software you are using.
Not any currently to be honest. I'm running my web server for hosting my website and that's essentially it.
I used a static site generator (https://www.romanzolotarev.com/ssg.html) to convert Markdown files from a small wiki I had hosted on GitHub to html, but that didn't work too well and I had to fix a bunch of stuff, so I won't use that one anymore.

>I see static site generators being used

That's what I want to start using at one point, I just have to get into it. It seems like the best solution for a static website, Just need to find one I like.

>Scripting languages often used in web development are also an option

Things like PHP seem a bit overkill for me. I see the use you have for it, and your workflow is nicely adapted to it, but I don't think it would make sense for me.

>and then later I automated writing the HTML itself to an extent too

I saw you having a post about that, wanted to read through it at one point. It seemed interesting. Maybe it will give me some inspiration.

>on the big assumption you haven't already.

yeah... I don't yet lol. That's a big part of why I asked about the workflow you guys had. Static site generators seem to be able to do that; the one I used, ssg, just had you put 2 files in your directory and the content of those would be pre-/appended to the other files that are supposed to be converted.
The downside is you have to generate everything again after changing a header, but I guess to me that's better than using php only to include those dynamically.
That makes me think, maybe entr could be used to look for changes in these 2 files ssg uses to automatically generate new versions of files and put them in the right place...

>I like Vim because I like bulk actions and macros.

You have good taste. I can't work without vim.
I'm just looking for a web development workflow, the rest I'm more than familiar with. I just haven't dabbled with webdev.

Thanks for the suggestions, it jumpstarted my brain. Now to not be lazy and implement the stuff...

Yeah, it's perhaps true that a scripting language was of more use to me, because when I started making my site I had a very specific vision of how I wanted it to work, and was willing to start from scratch. Granted, it's total overkill to just convey text, the site became admittedly more like a personal art project. A static site generator will probably suit most people better.

>I saw you having a post about that, wanted to read through it at one point. It seemed interesting.

That was also somewhat overkill, but I had fun with it.

Doesn't matter as long as you have fun with it.

I'm currently setting up my page with a static site generator. I decided to go for blogc because I like the philosophy behind it.
It will take some time, though. I essentially need to redo everything from scratch, convert my GitHub wiki thing to blogc's own source language, figure out how the templates work exactly and think about the structure of my website (I'm not sure if I want to keep the wiki section).

I'm writing my first proper blog post on it as I go, in case I forget how I set up stuff or someone else stumbles upon it and can get some useful information out of it (I didn't find anything on blogc just browsing around for a few minutes). Will also put my stuff up on GitHub, as usual (before setting up my own git server instance that is).

This may be a shameless self-plug, but it actually occured to me while posting my haphazard scripting on my website, I should make some suggestions for how people would make their own. If you're familiar with the fundamental concepts of a programming language, it should be enough to give you a starting point: https://concealed.world/Scripting/_index.php?post=scriptingessentials.php

Of course, plenty of resources out there. I never set out to learn Bash, I just learned a little bit whenever I thought to automate something. It's often reffered to as not being a real language, but for that reason it's stupidly easy to pick up.

Gemini is someone looking at how people are abusing Gopher, such as using menues for articles rather than the text item type, and deciding that a format which makes that the default, along with mandatory encryption and some other garbage strewn on top, makes for a compelling new protocol. Gemini has undesirable and completely unnecessary characteristics at the protocol level, such as freeform fields where fixed-location would be better, and doesn't even allow for resuming a download at a certain point, which is so basic and an example of something that would be a meaningful addition over Gopher.

Mandatory encryption done like this is nonsense, and it also kills most attempts at retro computing, which is a large part of the draw with Gopher. It's entirely uncompelling.

>would you rather have your ISP able to silently change your text in transit?
I send almost all of my traffic through Tor, and I've never had an issue with unencrypted resources being tampered with. Perfect strangers are more trustworthy than US corporations being paid, I know.

What I eventually want to do is provide signed hash digests of my files in a known location, which provides stronger guarantees than TLS does. I don't care if traffic be encrypted nearly as much as I care that it be what was intended.

Of course, I highly doubt anything offered over Gemini is genuinely worth encrypting. The reason encrypting everyone's stupid little websites, no matter how insignificant, became popular is because Google, et al. didn't want their advertisements being interfered with. Now they can use encryption to control hardware after they sell it, which is disgusting. It also has the added benefit that hardware not even one decade old is beginning to become useless for browsing the WWW, requiring new hardware with newer software.

If I were to only offer my website encrypted, that would make me entirely dependent on outside organizations over which I've no control, and I refuse this if only because it's unnecessary.

The one time I've noticed my website being intercepted, and having JavaScript injected, was when some jackass placed Cloudflare over my website, for some reason; the fool may have even thought he was doing something helpful.

 No.38978

>>38977
I'm to understand the WWW browsers purposefully make using these infeasible; were that not the case, I'd probably be offering one. In any case, my website will always be offered unencrypted. The only excuse for omnipresent encryption is if it's going to be done competently and at a level that can't cause issues so very easily, such as the level of the network itself. Gemini has little good reason to make encryption mandatory.

So, I'm of the opinion that encryption either needs to be done well and at a level where the average user need not even think of it, much less interact with it when programming most of the times, or that eliding encryption should always be an option.

Don't spill the soykaf. If I'm thought to be wrong, then tell me why. In any case, let this be my last post on this topic; feel free to have the last word. I want to discuss my work, not the WWW or Gemini.

>>38980
Google and other companies sell hardware which uses encryption to serve its true master, not the person who purchased it. Google helped champion that DNS over HTTPS garbage, and that conveniently prevents people who purchase the hardware from telling it which DNS server to use, which is useful for things such as monitoring and blocking advertisements. Now, more advanced users could spoof the DNS server IP addresses, were it not for techniques such as certificate pinning. Companies such as Google shove ever more around with HTTPS in order to make it an all-or-nothing blocking effort.

I referred in particular to the awful little tracking devices called cell phones by this. They stop getting updated after a few years, which conveniently includes TLS and certificate updates, so they eventually can't access most encrypted websites, and ever more websites are only available encrypted, without much reason.

Now again, have the last word on this topic, I don't care. I'll only respond further if it involves my work, which actually interests me.

Nice site, your banner is a mess though. To be fair, the part from the first thread saying something along the lines of "Try to keep it under 50 KB," was ommitted.

I assume you did it with some kind of recording software. I had a look and it has 270+ 10ms frames, so I'm not surprised it's 2.2 MB. Even with some optimisation I only got it down to 1.7. Looking at the HTML on https://skumsoft.ltd/, I saw that it was a transparent png with a looping gif background.

I ended up just taking a screenshot, because I didn't want to subject people on Tor to downloading a 2+ MB banner. This ended up being sharper, but it's not animated. If you ever want me to add another banner image let me know.

I've written some brief notes.

In many cases, there is improperly used where their should be. I also saw this with your and you're, along with other errors I won't mention.

>These names can be abbreviated via aliases, Get-ChildItem -> gci which is much more respectable.

Why is this more respectable? Explain.

>Microsoft is a direct competitor to *nix, and the command line is really far to important for Microsoft to own.

I'm a UNIX-HATER, so I'm inclined to point out that UNIX neither invented nor owns the command line as well.

>Powershell is an attempt to blend both but dumps Unix culture, C, and hands control of the shell to Microsoft.

This is, again, an odd sentence.

>Historically, there has been no effective competitor to the Unix CLI.

This is false. I don't have a video offhand, but take a look at the Lisp Listener available on Lisp Machines. These provided an REPL interface, but the text maintained its identity; this means that printing an integer, or anything else, doesn't make it become a senseless string of characters, because the system still knows what it actually is; it could also do things the UNIX sh can't, such as using array functions to manipulate image files, with results shown at the listener like anything else.

I didn't learn anything from this post, but I'm already very knowledgeable. I appreciate the surveillance of Powershell was mentioned, as I'd actually forgotten about that detail. To conclude, it's odd to read the valid criticisms of sh, but see the author still defend it; sh, along with the rest of UNIX, is a disgusting mess.

I dont see where the "it works for me" argument was ever used, nor did i use "everyone else does it" as an argument. Yes, I do think he is overreacting. I also think using tor for everyday browsing is overreacting and a waste of tors bandwidth, unless he lives in a country where that is necessary, though, seeing as his own site is hosted in spain, that wouldnt seem to be the case. No, I am not using this as justification for it not being tor-compatible, i have always been able to access it through tor so either i am suffering from a fluke, or something else is going on.

There isn't any need for web ring drama, as you can add all the Cloudflare sites you want to your own local copy of the ring.

Personally I won't be though, for all the reasons above already said, and because Tor users are a substantial portion of the visitors on my site. I see avoiding Cloudflare sites and imageboards only looking to advertise, as a kind of quality gatekeeping to make the web ring a better experience for visitors and website owners, and truer to the original purpose.

>Nobody gave any reason or facts though.

I'll dump all this so people can stop talking about it.

* Cloudflare needs users to enable cookies and JavaScript (JS these days can literally follow your mouse movements, it's entirely reasonable to prefer to keep it disabled across the board).
* Everything on the internet depends on a central server, which means that everyone must abide by the central server's whims in regards to acceptable content, and if the server has trouble, all websites have trouble.
* Cloudflare operates as a MITM, distributing their copies of a website to the eventual end-user. They can edit or remove whatever they want theoretically.
* It makes accessing websites far more difficult for those with low-end computers or comparatively poor bandwidth.
* Cloudflare descriminates against Tor users, effectively forcing people to use and have logged their real IP address when visiting a website.
* Cloudflare can return fake IP addresses owned by themselves to filter users, which can break software.
* By using the same gateway to access the vast majority of online services, it is far easier to make a profile of you as an individual and follow you around the web.

I have no idea who would actively, actually want this for the web, beyond ignorance or apathy.

True, I think that is part of the "culture" here, although again it is completely transparent, not hidden - and I'd like to think it's based largely in facts and reason, rather than in being some kind of larper. I only bring to attention why I may not add someone for their interest, because I see it as useful information: no one's going to try to bar you from talking, or delete your posts, or anything like that, and if you want those sites on your ring I certainly wouldn't stop you.

>You're the one who doesn't understand why someone would use a technology but they are the ignorant ones.

I can understand its purpose as a CDN, but I'm of the opinion that in regards to Cloudflare specifically the negatives (see posts above) heavily outweigh the positives - even more so when running a very small site with little need for one - and so I'll do as I like with my own webring. That's what I mean when I say I have "no idea".

If you want to address any particular point I brought up and argue it that's fine, but otherwise let's just agree to disagree by now. I won't keep going unless there's anything new to add.

My recommendation is to keep notes - you've probably heard this everywhere else. Otherwise 95% of your ideas will go to waste. Most good ideas are too big to implement immediately, I actually have a backlog of over a dozen things I'd like to do/talk about at the moment.

Piling on a person for tripping over the hidden narrative with no explanation is the opposite of that actually. You didn't say "don't use X because A, B, C". You just said "don't use X and lurk moar". Avoiding direct challenges like that means your "culture" is invested in maintaining a status quo regardless of facts. Again, what is a circle jerk?

>That's what I mean when I say I have "no idea".

Well no, you're just projecting your own circumstances and requirements onto everyone else and therefor anyone who acts different must be an idiot. Just because you try hard to use fancy words and look smart doesn't mean you are.

>heyuri.net - an imageboard centered around early 2000s nostalgia, has been revived by a russian business man named Yuri Kuznetsoff.
Yeah, nah. I remember heyuri.cf being spammed around chans since beginning of 2019. It looked like an amateur attempt at making gallery/booru website by someone who's no older than 18.
The neocities page reads like a load of crap. Mykoyanovich is not even a real patronymic, and is redundant. It's derived from Armenian surname Mikoyan which is patronymic itself: "Michael's son". There is no "birthday boy" words in Russian. There is a word именинник derivative from именины, a saint name day. But there is no custom for birthday person to wear such t-shirts like it is in the US. Just look up "birthday boy tshirt" and "футболка именинник", at most you'll get results like "футболка с днем рождения" which means "happy birthday to you tshirt", worn by people who organize the party. If such t-shirt exists, the owner would proudly show it to us, especially since it was a big meetup judging from his true cool stories.
There is no "eastern accent" in Russian language. The language has been completely uniformed through standardized education and population migrations in the 20th century. Some very old remote villagers do have local dialects and people who use Russian as second or interchangeably to their native language do have accents, but not people whose Russian language is the only one. Even people in urban Belarus, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan don't have any definitive accents in their speech, they speak standard Russian dialect.
His computer basement room has US power outlets: https://blog.kuz.lol/posts/90320.php I've seen many Russian nerd rooms, they immediately look different even if you don't see such obvious detail as power outlets, foremost thing is distinct American style high baseboard, carpeting and wall plaster/paint hue. In Russia baseboards are much lower, nobody has full-floor grey carpets and almost all rooms have windows because even private houses rarely sport underground rooms suitable enough to make a computer dungeon like it's popular in US. Walls are another giveaway, but I'm pretty good at detecting this grayish paint in US interiors, Russian walls would either be covered in kitschy wallpaper ranging from 70's to 2000's hardware store collections or very light colored paint with white being the most sensible option due to very low amount of sunlight hours in Russia in general to maximize lighting. Styles of shelves, desks and Clorox can also point to North American location. Even if moving to US is a popular option for IT specialists from Russia, they obviously don't end up like him, they are completely different demographic with different interests, job at big corpo, and lesser attitudes to hoarding old computer hardware.

I doubt he's even real Russian, just some American larper. Many links to images and pages on his websites show 404 error, which means he has not finished fabricating them, they do not exist yet. His "social media" accounts are all made in last 4 months, he's somewhat active on Discord chatrooms with degenerate slang and image macros judging from screenshots posted around his webpages and chans where his personality is discussed. All "epic insider revelations" are posted on a file hosting site hosted at his own kolyma network. Neocities page says "last updated: 11/22/15" but itself is created in September 2020. There is also a full copy of neocities page at on one of his https://freehostingproject.cf/ sites: http://arc.kjpcdn.cf/arhiva/kuz/neoanon/neocities-kuz/
I'd classsify this whole thing as net-art ARG with le olde interwebz atmosphere, good enough for nostalgia-overwhelmed 14 year-olds I think. Until links to news articles and original "9chan" existence are provided, everything said by people who know "kuz" is pure fiction.

I have heard him speak russian before on a since deleted youtube video that he made in may this year, it was something about 9chan "ap" board and it has 1.2k views or something, i will look for reuploads and ask around on his sites

>His computer basement room has US power outlets

He said he moved to the United States in 2014, I asked around and this seems to be accepted.

>Even if moving to US is a popular option for IT specialists from Russia, they obviously don't end up like him, they are completely different demographic with different interests, job at big corpo, and lesser attitudes to hoarding old computer hardware.

I would say with a reputation as awful as his is, it would be hard to get a job anywhere, but he says he has about 4 bitcoins and a ton of savings through property investments, of course he never provided any direct proof but he spends money lavishly and the like, he doesnt seem to be in an any financial trouble since he doesnt work a job.

As long as it's non-obfuscated and only performs functions that plain CSS couldn't do, I think it's just fine.
I use JS on two pages on my site:
1. the hidden rollcall, to show what week of the year it is (to help judge if a site has been down a while)
2. the poetry index, to make the table sortable by title or date
Neither of these are essential to using the site, and it still works just fine in text-based browsers; I just like the extra little functionality.

Just looked up Микоянович seems like it's indeed a real patronymic, but the implied bilinguistic construction behind it is bizarre. Example, WWII soldier born 1910: https://glory.rin.ru/cgi-bin/lost.pl?act=more&id=634073&surname=&father=&name=&birth=0000&act=src&page=12682
My immediate thought was that Mikoyan might have been a name given to boys in honor of Anastas Mikoyan, a revolutionary, in a following Soviet fashion:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_Soviet_origin
Fullest list at Wikipedia contains no such name: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Список_имён_советского_происхождения
But since that man was born in 1910, he might also have been an orphan of civil war at age of 12, adopting a patronymic in honour of the revolutionary, that's a really wild stretch.

There are no people people named Kuznetsov Y(uri) M(ikoyanovich) in Omsk in the open phone number databases. Since he's born in 1988, and those were leaked somewhere around early 2000's, his name would appear there, if it was real. There are no birth dates supplied to names, and the list is probably very incomplete in my opinion.
His name may also be a compound riddle of some sorts, for example, as >>39318 claims, again with zero first-person evidence, that this is a pen name of multiple people, hence the name Kuz-net and Kuz-nets might imply it's a network of people, also kuzzy-kins. If we take his given name, Юрий spelled Yuri is an ecchi/hentai genre, patronymic Miko is a shrine servant, and also heyuri domain name also contains his name, with some sources claiming that he "bought" the website from previous owner in early 2020. Every page has emphasis on him being 32 years old, why would you even point your age that way even if you fabricated a plausibly sounding pen name?

This thread https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/g/thread/79124012/ has a few screenshots featuring kuz. People in screenshots seem to buy into him being Russian, or it's all just an act or manufactured pictures. OP pic seemed familiar, in fact there is a thread with same picture and theme here on lainchan made in November: >>>/r/20829

"9chan" might also be a code name for 4chan r9k chatrooms on Discord the character seems to visit, maybe that's what they call their steam community which was active in 2019: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/9channel
There is also a wider lore of connected characters, a girl under nickname cvnka (homograph to Russian word свинка, "piggie"), there is a youtube channel under this name, can't tell whether her accent is US or Eastern European from the heavy lisp.
A a link to Discord chatroom and picture posted by cvnka or someone associated with her character says Blue Whale:
https://archiveofsins.com/soc/thread/27646897
Blue Whale is a self-harm and suicidal ARG that was popular among Russian teens in 2017. According to 771329 post
on this thread https://web.archive.org/web/20201120032606/https://lolcow.farm/snow/res/302894.html she and her clique indulge in manipulations that lead others to self-harm. (Dumb teenagers being dumb, yeah, who remembers tsuki project)
The neocities page, chatroom screenshots and drama plastered on other chans say completely opposite things: she is either Russian, Polish, Ukrainian or USAnian from Michigan. Using Russian-esque culture references and phrases is not that uncommon in modern world, it's no different from using moonrunes for some people, there was for example a Brazilian instagram girl who used handle Келли Розарио, she was popularized by mewch, another cancerous imageboard from a while ago.

I agree. It took me some time to see that just consuming information after information is really bad. It's good to know more, but I was not taking my time to think about what I read and learn. It got the point that all that information was becoming useless, I was not using it, I was not even trying to better understand it, I was just "accumulating" information that would soon become useless for me.

If this is a lainchan webring, why not have lainchan.org itself have a page with banners to the websites of people who browse it? The banners and links would all be neatly visible from within lainchan itself, people won't have to copy from one another to stay updated and people like >>39436 wouldn't have to link to other people's webring pages but could link the lainchan one instead. Maybe lainchan.org could also outline some guidelines, like requiring participating sites to at least have some reference to the lainchan webring page if they want to participate.

JavaScript can be useful, and it isn't innately "evil" or anything like that.

In my opinion, JS should be used where convenience features would be useful, one example of this would be on imageboards - where you autofill a post number in a quick reply box upon clicking the post number link, rather than scroll to the top of the page and enter it all manually into the form. What you're describing is probably fine.

Granted, I could guess 90% of the uses of JS on the modern web are stupid. All text content on a page should be legible and scrollable, and there should be a way to view any images and videos on the page. If a site was unusable without JS I probably wouldn't add it to my copy of the ring, as forcing users to enable JS can be a way to infringe on privacy.

My site doesn't use JS, just to make a point that it isn't strictly necessary. Generally I have JS disabled everywhere anyway.

Honestly when you mention those kinds of prices, I'd recommend buying a low-end single-board computer because it's a one-off payment and will barely make a dent in your electricity bill. Should be far cheaper in the long run.

Is it worth having a dedicated communication channel for this community, outside these threads?

Naturally as many people looking to create or promote a site already have done, it has been slower lately, and only going to get slower.

There may still be a sliver of people that won't be finished their site when the last thread hits the bump limit, and without communication the project is "over". And it may just be to the interest of other webmasters to keep talking to each other anyway.

It's been something on my mind. I don't have much to suggest for platform or software at the moment, but I envision something more community-like than individual one-to-one messages.

An aside note: I've been scheming lately, but what I have in mind is too much for my current hardware, so I made a server move recently. Some downtime. I made a mess of things on the back-end, and now my onion addresses have changed. If you keep them anywhere, update at your own leisure:

>Is it worth having a dedicated communication channel for this community, outside these threads?
I don't think so, any one member of the webring who wants to check on new participants is able to make a new thread should the old one disappear. If it can't inspire even that miniscule effort out of all the webring participants, then it's stagnated anyway.
A more subjective point: if it's not on lainchan, it's decoupled from lainchan. All the people in the webring might come from lainchan at the current moment, but once a separate channel exists, what's stopping people from joining the webring but not being in any other way a part of lainchan? Not that I particularly care about lainchan folk as a community or who joins or whatnot, but I wouldn't call it the lainchan webring then.

>And it may just be to the interest of other webmasters to keep talking to each other anyway.

I prefer any discussion be held on a thread like this, because I think lainchan's format of public discourse is cool and likely what inspired many people to join the webring in the first place. Isn't this already a pretty good platform?

I was just musing to myself, thinking over this a second time I would probably agree. Any other channel would be secondary to this. If it slows down it slows down, clearly there's not much to say at that point.

Yeah, I hope I wasn't too rude in trying to get my perspective across, you bring up a good point of discussion, but in my view things are fine as they are. On a side note, I love your site and am kind of wondering what you might be scheming.

Not at all, it's fine. I was just playing with the idea anyway, I didn't have anything at this point to offer anyone.

>On a side note, I love your site and am kind of wondering what you might be scheming.

I don't like to get people's hopes up too much, the hype train often crashes. But it should be good.

And of course, the question is not what I am scheming, but in which order I execute my schemes. I have enough ideas floating around to keep myself occupied for years in my spare time.

Ah, I see. I had already noticed that the site was effectively lifted from mayvaneday, on an earlier iteration of the CSS. But I hadn't seen that mayvaneday more recently changed the format of their webring (I last checked that page when they first joined), so I didn't make the connection that was lifted too.

It's an open format so I suppose there's no hard rules against it - I took the #d2738a colour and approximately took a hover CSS animation from fauux - but come on. A little effort, it's only HTML and CSS.

Anyway, I'll stop talking about some random's site now, that's probably enough.

I am extremely pleased by how small my banner is.

Lain may be interested in my mutt page where I offer 'stress free' (I won't ban you) mutt testing.
Once you get the hang of mutt and the other programs that you might use, it is no longer a scary behemoth and you should be able to easily move to cock.li or some other service.

Got you added. This was funny to read.

I feel I should also mention - since I've been keeping an eye on it for a while - if you're interested in tildes, a tilde spawned from this board with an active thread concurrent to our own is beginning to see a little use. It could be worth checking out, I've not been given any incentive to promote it.

since 2021, all .ch WHOIS data is strictly hidden unless special requests are addressed to nic.ch, so if you don't want to use Tor and still have a clearnet face, then .ch is the way to go.

all it costs is 10 bucks a year, then host it yourself somewhere (at home for free).

Added you again. I had noticed because I try to keep regular tabs, glad to see you back. I figure that means I should remove the old link and banner I was using.

I also noticed this and your old domain are HTTP-only - it's not really pertinent unless you're sending sensitive information, but you may want to get HTTPS just because of how painless it is to do with something like Certbot.

If you're familiar with shell scripting, I could suggest you read unique IP addresses from a log file. For example: https://git.concealed.world/shell-scripts/file/sitevisitors.html

This could be improved, and I may do that at some point. Assuming you would want to use it you'll need to adjust it to your needs.

As such it goes. The only person using these scripts is me (I have one for GET requests too), and I have no interest in trying to profile you, but if you don't trust me (you can see the scripts for yourself) there are ways not to participate in all of them - use my onion mirror, use a proxy of some kind, spoof your user-agent, etc.

How BOLD of you

But yeah, whatever websites you're visiting, I really could not give less of a damn, and as far as I am aware I have no way of knowing.

I understand privacy concerns, so I'm purposefully only working with http requests, because you can spoof all the relevant information if you want.

It includes the IP address, datetime, file requested, and user-agent. No refferers or cookies or anything like that. It's the bare basic standard, as Lainchan has a unique poster count I assume they use the same. On my onion mirror the IP would just be "127.0.0.1".

The only way to go further beyond is log output to /dev/null, which I recall you do.
